Your privacy is very important to us. Our Privacy Policy explains how we treat your personal information and protect your privacy when you are using the Site.

Eligibility to Purchase

The purchase of merchandise through Threads & Beams is strictly limited to parties who can lawfully enter into and form contracts on the Internet in accordance with the laws of the State of New York. In order to make purchases on the Site you will be required to provide your personal details and payment details that you represent and warrant are both valid and correct and you confirm that you are the person referred to in the billing information provided.

By making an offer to purchase merchandise you expressly authorize us to perform credit checks and where Threads & Beams feels necessary, to transmit or to obtain information (including any updated information) about you to or from third parties, including but not limited to your credit/debit card number or credit reports (including credit reports for your spouse if you reside in a community property jurisdiction), to authenticate your identity, to validate your credit/debit card, to obtain an initial credit/debit card authorization and to authorize individual purchase transactions.

Threads & Beams reserves the right to restrict multiple quantities of an item being shipped to any one customer or postal address.

Orders

All orders are subject to acceptance and availability, and items in your shopping basket are not reserved and may be purchased by other customers. Once you have placed your order on the Site, you will receive an email acknowledging the details of your order. This email is not an acceptance of your order. Acceptance of your order will be perfected upon completion of the packing of your order, unless you cancel your order. We may also refuse to process and therefore accept a transaction for any reason or refuse service to anyone at any time at our sole discretion. We will not be liable to you or any third party by reason of our withdrawing any merchandise from the Site or refusing to process a transaction or unwinding or suspending any transaction after processing has begun.

Payment

We accept all major credit and debit cards. Payment will be debited and cleared from your account upon dispatch of your order by Threads & Beams. You confirm that the credit/debit card that is being used is yours or that you have been specifically authorized by the owner of the credit/debit card to use it. All credit/debit card holders are subject to validation checks and authorization by the card issuer. If the issuer of your payment card refuses to authorize payment to Threads & Beams, we will not be liable for any delay or non-delivery.

Pre-Orders

At the time you place an order for a product available on pre-order terms, you will be required to pay 50% of the amount due as a deposit, exclusive of shipping fees and taxes. The remaining 50% will be charged at the time the product is shipped. Shipping fees, taxes and import duties, where applicable, will also be charged at the time the product is shipped.

Any rights not expressly granted herein are reserved. You may not assign the ToS, or assign, transfer or sublicense your rights therein. A failure to act with respect to a breach by you or others does not waive Threads & Beams' right to act with respect to subsequent or similar breaches.

RETURN AND EXCHANGE POLICY

Threads & Beams will accept, for return or exchange, items that are in new condition, unworn, unaltered and free of damages by the customer. For a full refund or exchange, mail out your item within 21 days from the receipt of original order. Please note, refunds are exclusive of shipping cost. Items cannot be returned or exchanged after 21 days from the receipt of original order. Items must be returned with all Threads & Beams tags still attached and must be in their original packaging such as shoeboxes and dust bags.

How to Return or Exchange Your Order

We offer FREE ground shipping for all returns and exchanges (with the exception of Hawaii and Alaska) as long as you use the pre-paid return label we provide after you contact our customer service team. If you wish to exchange your item for a different product, you must return the original item and purchase the new item separately.

Affix the enclosed pre-printed label to the outside of the shipping box. Drop off the package at the any Carrier Store, Drop Box, Customer Center, or with any Carrier driver. If a carrier is not available in your area or you prefer not to use it to return or exchange your items, you can use any other trackable method, at your expense. Please insure the package for the full retail value of the shipped products, as we will not be liable for any damage incurred in transit.

Once we receive your package, we will process your return within 3 business days.

Refunds

Refunds will be made in the form of the original payment where the same credit card used for purchase will be credited with a refund. While we process returns within 3 business days from the day we received the items, card refunds may take up to ten business days for your bank to complete, depending on their processing time. This can vary greatly between card issuers, and unfortunately we are unable to influence this.

SHIPPING POLICY

Shipping Methods, Costs and Transit Times

Threads & Beams uses USPS, FEDEX or UPS for its shipments and offers a FLAT RATE ground shipping on all orders shipped to a valid US address (excluding Hawaii and Alaska).

Order Turn-Around Time

All orders are processed and shipped as fast as humanely possible from the date/time they were placed. If an order is placed before 10am EST, in most cases it will be processed and shipped out on the same day. During very busy seasons and major launches, the shipment can take up to 7 days. We'll do everything we possibly can to get your shoes to you and if you have any questions, we're happy to answer all of the above when you email hello@threadsandbeams.com.

Risk of Loss; Product Insurance

All products purchased from the Site are made pursuant to a shipment contract. This means that the risk of loss and title for such items pass to you upon our delivery to the carrier. We insure your purchase during its transit until it is delivered to the delivery address specified in your order. To complete the delivery, we require a signature, at which point responsibility for the purchased product(s) passes to you. If the recipient of the product is someone other than you for delivery purposes, you agree that evidence of a signature by such recipient or at such recipient's delivery address is evidence of a completed delivery by us with responsibility for the purchased product passing to you.
